She is, twenty five, spent over half of her life |
| [00:32.940] |
So afraid to speak her mind, it's such a shame |
| [00:39.350] |
'Cause what a brilliant mind she has |
| [00:43.840] |
Chorus |
| [00:44.200] |
And now she's been introduced to confidence |
| [00:53.740] |
She doesn't see, that she is bordering on arrogance |
| [01:04.360] |
When will she learn, to come back to the middle |
| [01:20.030] |
He is, a young black man, grew up without his father |
| [01:30.220] |
And now it falls into his hands, to protect his mother |
| [01:38.890] |
India.Arie |
| [01:39.390] |
'Cause if he doesn't, well then who will, his older brother lives in fear |
| [01:51.500] |
Of everything, especially, trying to fill his father's shoes |
| [02:00.900] |
Chorus |
| [02:01.550] |
Respectively, they go to extremes, of masculine and feminine |
| [02:12.060] |
Chasing dreams, but they keep on falling |
| [02:17.570] |
'Cause they don't know no balance |
| [02:22.390] |
When will they learn, to come back to the middle |
| [02:28.950] |
Bridge |
| [02:31.250] |
You must take the good with the bad, and you might hit the wall |
| [02:37.020] |
Sometimes you'll fly and sometimes you'll fall |
| [02:42.560] |
There isn't any way, to avoid the pain |
| [02:47.000] |
But it's getting burned, that's how you will learn |
| [02:51.500] |
Instrumental Break |

Chorus |
| [03:14.830] |
Needing to protect your self now that is just a part of life |
| [03:24.500] |
If you let your fears keep you from flying, you will never reach your height |
| [03:35.660] |
To get to the top you must come back to the middle |
| [03:45.930] |
When will we learn, to come back to the middle |
| [03:59.690] |
|
| [04:11.260] |
Come back to the middle, Come back to the middle |
| [04:20.820] |
Don't make no mind about falling down |
| [04:22.880] |
'Cause it's when you're in that valley |
| [04:25.860] |
You can see both sides more clearly |
| [04:28.330] |
|
| [04:31.250] |
Come back to the middle |
